It is true that it seems that everyone is focused on Real Madrid-Manchester City, but we should not underestimate another semi-final in between Arsenal and Bayern Munichwith the incentive of the crisis of the German team.
More than prestige is at stake. Mikel Arteta He probably has the head of Thomas Tuchelwhere it has already been announced that he will not continue once the season ends but, depending on the result, he could be terminated suddenly to try to salvage at least the second leg.
Bayern need good news and at least yesterday they had some in training. Manuel Neuer He seems to have recovered in time and will be able to start against the Gunners since he trained with the rest of his teammates. Also seen in that session Sané, Coman, Pavlovic and Mazraouiwho was absent from Saturday’s defeat against Heindenheim which caused a major shake-up in the team and will put all his faith in Harry Kane, a specialist in scoring goals in Arsenal.
On another level are the Gunners, who are huge favorites for the clash despite not reaching this point for years and feeling like a threat. They come into the event as leaders of a very tight Premier League and with morale through the roof, in addition to having all their players available except for the long-term injured Timber. Let’s see if they do it with Porto lesson learned and the role of Odegaard, Saka and Rice, their figures, will depend more on it.
